Floor spring repairs Bristol and Avon

If a glass door at your Bristol and Avon premises has stopped closing properly, check for oil around the floor plate and send us a photo of it. Where the make cannot be identified, a charged diagnostic visit to your premises in Bristol and Avon or the South West confirms it, and we tell you the cost first.

What do we fix in Bristol and Avon?

Leaking hydraulic oilOil under the cover plate usually means the sealed unit has failed. It normally needs replacing rather than topping up.

Worn top pivot or patchTop pivots, bottom straps and patch fittings wear alongside the spring, so we check them while the door is off.

Flooded or dirty boxWater and grit in the cement box shorten the life of the spring. We clear it and check that the box is still sound.

How much does it cost in Bristol and Avon?

The guide price is £295 to £695 ex VAT per floor spring. Landlords looking after glass entrances in Bristol and Avon or anywhere in the South West can add floor springs to a planned maintenance visit, rather than waiting for a failure. The price we confirm in writing includes travel and access.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Bristol and Avon?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Bristol and Avon, including Bristol.

Will a new floor spring fit my existing box?

Often yes, if the box and spindle match the replacement. Many makes share similar sizes, but not all do, so we check the dimensions first. Where they differ, an adapter or a new box may be needed, and a new box means opening up the floor.

Can a leaking floor spring be repaired?

Usually not. A leaking floor spring is normally replaced, because the hydraulic unit is sealed and its seals are not a routine site repair. The cement box can often stay. If the box is corroded or the make is no longer available, we explain the options.

What happens if I leave a faulty floor spring?

The door becomes harder to control and can slam or swing into people. A failed spring also strains the top pivot, the patch fittings and the glass. Toughened doors need care, because damage at an edge can cause the whole panel to break.
